This is what I posted to the list a couple of weeks ago... seems to me the forum is where it needs to be.
As you can see this depends on doing one order for our group but I assume we can pay individually and the tyres will be delivered direct to your door.
Minimum 3 tyres per address.
These are the tyres: www.sidecarpro.com/Body_frame_Tires_tyres_Cheng_Shin_flat_profile.html
Takers so far:
Ross Slade
Graham Meyer
Chris Davy
Anyone else want to put their name down for 3 tyres @ $65-ish each?

Hi Ross
Quick summary below:
1 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 + shipping usd40. Landed cost - usd85.50 each.
2 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 x 2 + shipping usd62. Landed cost - usd76.50 each.
3 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 x 3 + shipping usd82. Landed cost - usd72.83 each.
4 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 x 4 + shipping usd100. Landed cost - usd70.50 each.
5 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 x 5 + shipping usd116. Landed cost - usd68.70 each.
6 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 x 6 + shipping usd130. Landed cost - usd67.16 each.
7 x B600100S - ChengShin Flat profile 6-Ply DOT 3.75x19 Tire - USD45.5 x 7 + shipping usd142. Landed cost - usd65.78 each.
I really like the idea of the bulk buy as it saves me so much time and energy in both the sourcing and also the packing side of things. The tyres for me are a 2 hour round trip to go and pick up each order cycle so to be able to minimise the frequency of these trips would be perfect. Do you think there would be any opportunities to promote something like this to all Aussie riders? If we can group everyone's order together, and ship the same day with a minimum of 3 tyres per address I can reduce the price further to usd65 each tyre landed.
Cheers
Ben
